Add a new make target to install to install kernel selftests. This new target will build and install selftests. kselftest target now depends on kselftest_install and runs the generated kselftest script to reduce duplicate work and for common look and feel when running tests. Approach: make kselftest_target:
kselftest_install?

-- exports kselftest INSTALL_KSFT_PATH default $(INSTALL_MOD_PATH)/lib/kselftest/$(KERNELRELEASE) -- exports path for ksefltest.sh -- runs selftests make install target:
This direction is OK to me. BTW, I've found another path to make selftest in Makefile, Actually you can do make -C tools/ selftest And there are selftest_install and selftest_clean targets (but currently it has a bug and doesn't work, anyway) I think we'd better do subdir make instead of adding these targets. This means that "make kselftest*" should be an alias of "make -C tools/ selftest*" Also, I'd like to request passing some options like as O=$(objtree) so that we can make test kmodules in selftests.
